Dr. Kuruttukulam, the only doctor on board, identified himself to the flight officials and used the woman’s Apple watch to monitor her heartbeat, oxygen saturation, and conduct an ECG. Discovering her low oxygen levels and high blood pressure, he administered the necessary injections from the flight's medical kit.
